[Correspondence of the Lus Angeles Stur.]
PontLAND, Oregon, Feb. 5, 1860,
Editor Star—Presuming tbftt a passing note
from this part ol our couutry muy he of some interest to your readers. I will pen lor your columns
a few observations and facts. We have no purii-
culnr question or event to mention tbat is agitating the public mind, socially or politically. True,
the political papers of this State, which olaim to
be the organs ot the different parties, ure giving
their renders a " bit" ot their prophecy and wisdom as il regards our present and (uture welfare.
All know, or profess at least to a knowledge of
who will be our next President. Partisans liave
their particular lavorite. upon whom they lavish
their plaudits, and wax eloquent, in defence of liis
cause. The Democratic party in Oregon is all
right. Tl eyflami firm upon their proper platform,
and are contending for the only true and time*
honored principles that are cherished and areever
dear to the true democrat's heart. We hope the
Democratic party throughout the Union will be
united wheu the sirin-'gle eni-n?" ■in,) .'-i.--'-'■■-
om.-oi'MS win crown ufelr churls. ''United we
stand, divided we fall.-■' Democrats, listen tothe
warning. Now is the time to work, aud the time
to ensure the ultimate defeat of the humbug Black
Republic-ill parly, and effectually crush out of existence their unprincipled demagogues, who for
years have beeu concocting the schemes of political degradation and disgrace, hurling their foul
arrows of slander and abuse at tbeserried phalnnx
of Democracy, and even now endeavoring to plunge
iheir country into the vortex of infamy and ruin.
ID is hardly necessary to stop here to inform
of one Bad defect in Oregon journalism, lor it'hus
almost, become a proverb—we mean the disposition
of onr politicatjournalists to look mora after Ihe
private affairs o( each other thun the good of tbe
people. Columns are often taken up with matter
that, is only personal, and disgusting to the people
generally.
The exciting reports of the richness of lhe Si-
mil-ka meen gold mines are causing considerable
stir in this place, and throughout the Stale. Many
are leaving, and others will follow in the spring.
Tbe distance Ironi Portland to the mines is csti-
ma'ed at 350 miles. Persous can go from this cily
to the mines in a canoe, except about thirty miles.
Three portagi s will have to be made as follows—
five miles at the Cascades ; fifteen miles at the
Dalles, aud fife miles at Priest's Itapids. The cost
of travel by steamboat is, irom Portland to lhe
Dalles, Sin; Dalles to Deschutes, S3; Deschutes
to Priest's Rapid, $20. From the latter place the
distance can be made in a canoe, but said (articles
are reported scarce in lhat counlry. Provisions
are supposed to be plenty at the mines in the spring
but will be very high. Our advice in the premises is, to look out for a humbug.
Portland, as you are aware, is tho largest and
most flourishing commercial city in Oregon. It
has a population of about 2.700. It contains five
churches, ihree steam saw mills; one semi-monthly
four weekly, and two daily newspapers. Portland

when mankind is about to be raised to claim their
natural and inalienable rights—when the yoke
of oppression which has reached ll.e wilderness of
America, and (lie unnatural alliances of ecclesiastical and civil puwer is about lo be dissevered—ut
such a period—when liberty—liberty of cotifl-
cience, is about to awake fiom her Nlnmberingt
and inquire into tbe reason of such charges as 1
find exhibited here in ihis indictment!'" Another
fearful pause while the j-pcaker alternately casi
his sharp, piercing eyes on Ihe conrt and the
prisoner,-*, and resumed, '• ifl am not deceived,
according to the contents of the paper I now bold
in my hand, Ihese men are accused of '• preaching

Another long pause, during which be aguiti
waved the indictment around his head, whwn a
deeper impression was made on the auditory. Be-

There are periods in the hislory of man when corruption and depravity have so long debased the
human character thai man sinks under lhe weight
of ihe oppressor's hand and becomes bie servile—
his abject slave ; he licks the hand that smite-i
him; be bows in passive obedience to the mandates of the despot; und in this state of servility

sed away! From the period when our lathers lelt
Lhe land of tlieir nativity (or settlement in these
American wilds for LwuiiTr—for civil and religious liberty— for liberty oT conscience—to worship tbefr Creator according to their eoooeplfooi
ol Heaven's revealed will ; irom tbe moment they
placed their feet on lhe American comment and iu
the deepest embedded forests sought an asylum
from persecution and tyranny—from that moment
despotism was crusln-d; ber "fetters ot darknes**
were broken, and Heaven decreed that man should
be free—free to worship God according lu Ibe
Bible. Were it not for this, in vain have been
made the efforts and sacrifice! of lhe colonists ; in
vain were all their sufferings and bloodshed to
subjugate this new world, if we, their offspring,
must still be oppressed and persecuted. But. may
it, plenpe your worships, perir.it me to inquire
once more—for what are these men about lo be
tried ? This paper says, ' fot preaching the gospel
of the Son of God.' Giikat God! For preach ing
the Savior lo Adam's fallen race!''
After ano*her pause, in tODea ol thunder, ha
